@The Jest

Sooo is there something wrong with victor that i have to change for him to be an engineer or did you miss him?

@ReusableSword

...OH crap. I apologize, I completely missed him for some reason. ...Don't know how that happened. X_X

I'm gonna talk with Windpipe (@Windstormugly) to see if he has any problems with it, but I'll add you on the Job List. If he does have problems with it, he'll let you know. ^_^

Now, where is that @Bishop!?

Devil's Advocates (Saving the world...by burning it down!)

Wait, so we can have powers although we are simple students just awoken from the Infinite Tsukuyomi brainwashing?

@Bishop

Excellent Question:

Imagine the essence of desire, of free will and want, not as a concept but as a thing, a type of energy signature or radiation that is part of the chemical make up of the soul. The same goes for its equal and opposite, Purity, the energy of the angels. Whenever one of the energies spike, it goes beyond the ethereal and materializes into the physical as power of some kind. Desire in particular shaping the power to fit the desires they have. Whereas Purity enhances a person based on their resolve to live by your standard virtues and what have you.

"But wait, The Purity energy completely enveloped all of the soul of everyone, didn't it? Wouldn't that count as some large spike of energy and give everyone angelic power?"

Not necessarily...

To begin with, that desire energy was considered a taint, a stain of corruption within the mortal soul. The soul was never designed with desire in mind, it simply "infected" everything formed from Purity like a plague. The brainwashing in question is a result of desire as an energy being completely erased by the purity, which fills in the proverbial empty space it leaves behind. essentially akin to returning the soul to "factory settings" one could say. A surge is the result of that energy being so potent that it breaks out of the soul and becomes actual energy, whereas the Angels simply filled in an empty space of the soul, keeping the energy contained within. There's a reason for this, but I'd rather not discuss it here, for the sake of Spoilers.

The moment your characters touched the corpse, the energy of desire came flooding into their soul in such a quality and quantity, that it generates a soul surge.

TL;DR: Overabundance of literal will power result in it pouring out of the soul, and into the physical world, becoming actual power for the characters in question to use.

@Ragrar Other than what @Windstormugly has said, the three of us approve and accept you. ^_^

Excellent work, @StormHeart.

We'll start the IC when I finish my own CSes, and everyone places their CSes in the Char Tab after I post mine there. XD

It's going to take some time to make said IC due to...Personal reasons. But I will work on it as soon as I'm done with said CSes. (Of which I AM almost done.)

That reminds me: Quick warning for you lot: The Captain has this...habit to him. Simply put: He likes to give all of his crew members nicknames...preferrably with one syllable each, and usually depending on what they are to him.

For example: William will be called "Knight" or something like that. Scrap is already a one-syllable name that sums her up, so odds are, Arron'll call her that.

Disclaimer: Some of the nicknames he gives out, might be humorous. XD

@The Jest How animalistic are the Alori? Like, aer we talking humans with ears & Tail, or full-on animals walking human style?

@tal0n

Considering how the original GM simply said "Furries", I'm under the assumption it means the latter, and so I'm sticking to full-on humanoid animals.

Busy with other Rps XD

@Bishop

One of them I hope being that Space Pirate one, it's awaiting Long Jo-I mean-Your Chef. XD

How's this?

Name: Venus Morgan

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Appearance: The standard lithe, teenage female. Small of stature. Slight of frame. Unnoticeable of bust or hips. Long straight dirty blonde hair. Almond shaped blue-green eyes. Thin lips. Small upturned nose. Barely tanned caucasian skin. Innocent and average. So childlike. Yet since her encounter at the cave, her hair looks like it's growing darker, and her skin paler than before.

Desire: Forbidden knowledge. Her one true lust is to know all that is not meant to be known by her. And moreso what is not meant to be known by anyone. To learn the truth of what has happened before that lead to this existence of bondage and mediocrity; to uncover the secrets of history.

Ability: Necromancy, at first only the ability to call forth weak wraiths of the more recently deceased. But as her desire grows...

Weapon: A large, very ornate dagger, with motifs of horned and fanged demon skulls on the handle and a black blade inlaid with sickly green runes whose bite is venomous to the living.

Personality: When she was content, her personality would have been considered boring if a bit chipper. Polite, yet only because she was afraid to be offensive. Now darkened edges of sass and sarcasm have crept in. Now, influenced by desire, she has anger, frustration, and passion.

Backstory: A typical girl child, of typical parents. The world after the world runs smoothly. All is as it should be. And Venus was as she should have been. A girl being educated, and doing her part to prepare for a life in city planning and architecture. Just another brick in the wall.

And then, in a life largely without incident, she was shocked to receive poor marks in her classes. It seemed that she didn't understand the value of, nor the proper procedure for including homages to angelic powers within the construction of buildings. She couldn't just pick out what looked good to her. She had to make it look good in a holy way.

So she set about studying. But it was all so confusing to her. And so her instructor arranged for her to visit sever holy sights on weekends to learn from first hand viewing. Her grades began to improve. But then, on the ninth such weekend excursion, she wandered off from the grounds in order to see the architecture from a distance. In doing so she discovered that there was something in the area that made her feel... well, she couldn't really understand it... but it seemed to draw her closer.

It eventually drew her into a cave where she saw visions of naked, horned, batwinged gods and goddesses old nature, magic, sex, death, and darkness. The we're like the angels if the angels could be monsters. And they seemed to call to her for help. They told her that she had been deceived. She saw visions of their altars and rituals. And she felt overwhelmed with wonderful, terrible feelings.

The girl who left that cave was no brick in anyone's wall, but a sledgehammer aimed at the foundations of paradise.

@Ragrar

Gonna need to discuss this with my fellow members of this triumvirate, but personally? I like it. ^^

Children of Plunder (Space Pirate RP)

@The Jest Is there room for one more?

@tal0n

Sure, just know that the "Chef" is currently reserved. Boarding parties' always gonna be open though.

Children of Plunder (Space Pirate RP)

@The Jest Gotcha! Are you in Hangoverville too? Haha.. ha. (Kill me)

@Atroposer

I don't drink...But let's just say that, after yesterday's shenanigans, part of me wishes I did. X_X

And excellent. ^_^

Children of Plunder (Space Pirate RP)

That's quite a bit! I can see why it took a while. It's excellent! Also, same question, do we just plop our characters in there? Go for secondary approva or what?

@Atroposer

Thank you. ^_^

Yes, and no. You don't technically need approval, but I would like to properly organize that particular sector by adding in my Captain first. Which could take another little bit due both to me wanting to make it as good as possible, and due to personal reasons as an effect of Yesterday. X_X

Until then, while you don't need approval, I would suggest putting them on this OOC here. As I need to organize at the very least who has what job. ...Speaking of which: *Heads to fill Luna's name on one of the Gunner jobs.*
